Many individuals who follow the Nutritarian diet write to Dr. Fuhrman about their success. Keep in mind that results vary from person to person. As always, consult your physician if you have a medical history and/or condition that may warrant individual recommendations.

Anita's Story

Anita is no longer depressed or suffering severe stomach pains and allergies  

I started a Vegan diet after miserable stomach cramps from eating ice cream one night as I watched the documentary "Forks Over Knives." I found Dr. Fuhrman shortly after that. I had been on antidepressants for 14 years and on 2 different antihistamine/allergy medications but still had terrible allergy symptoms. I also took Ambien when needed to sleep at night. I was getting ready to ask my doctor for new medication for chronic pain. It had flared up and nothing was helping the pain. I was so tired of being in pain and no energy.

A “ah ha” moment for me was Nutritarian recipes from YouTube that our food is our medicine. I was so tired of being in pain and no energy. As soon as I quit eating all meat, eggs, milk products, junk food and sugar, I finally for the first time in my life had energy and slept like a baby. My pain left in two days, and my swelling in my feet and ankles was gone. I got to decrease my antidepressants and got off of them completely. I do not have even one symptom of depression. I lost 20 pounds in that first month. I feel great, am happy and am looking forward to losing more weight. My allergies are gone too!!  My "hot flashes" that I thought were from menopause are totally gone. I have a whole page of things that left that first month and they have not come back almost a year later.
